Michal Bílek

During his career, Bílek was mainly associated with Sparta Prague, which he represented on four separate occasions, starting with the first team aged only 17. He played in the Czechoslovak First League for RH Cheb in the mid-1980s before returning to Sparta. On 27 December 1990, Bílek transferred to Spanish club Real Betis, being relegated in his first season, and returning to Sparta after another year. He played for FK Viktoria Žižkov and FK Teplice until 2000, appearing once again for his main club in between. Bílek played for Czechoslovakia and briefly for the independent Czech Republic. For both teams, he played a total of 35 matches and scored 11 goals, representing the former at the 1990 FIFA World Cup as an offensive mainstay – scoring twice for the quarterfinalists. His debut for Czechoslovakia occurred in 1987 during a friendly match against Poland in Bratislava.

Immediately after ending his playing career, Bílek began coaching, precisely with Teplice. After a brief stint in Costa Rica, he returned home, going on to manage FK Chmel Blšany, FC Viktoria Plzeň and MFK Ružomberok. In 2006, Bílek took charge of Sparta, replacing Stanislav Griga. He went on to win the Czech First League in his first season and finish second in the following season. Bílek resigned from his position at Sparta in May 2008. In late October 2009, having coached the nation's U19 team seven years earlier, former assistant Bílek was appointed new coach of the senior team, following Ivan Hašek's resignation after the failure to qualify for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. He was replaced as national team coach in September 2013 after nearly four years in the role by Josef Pešice.
